The NHL's All-Star Weekend comes to a close with the playing of the 59th All-Star Game this afternoon from Scotiabank Place in Ottawa.
After last night's Skills Competition, highlighted by Zdeno Chara's record-setting performance in the Hardest Shot competition, we're now set for three periods of high scoring and an incredibly little amount of backchecking. (If you're into betting on NHL All-Star Games, Bovada (formerly Bodog) sets today's over/under at 19.5.)
Now we know not all of you enjoy the All-Star festivities and that's fine. But if you choose to watch Team Chara battle Team Alfredsson today, your friends at Puck Daddy would like to aid in your viewing experience with another one of our drinking games.
No drinking game is a good one without interaction, so it's your job to add to our list in the comments.
For entertainment purposes only, here is Puck Daddy's Unofficial 2012 NHL All-Star Drinking Game, in the classic 1-2-3 drink format.
